Do with the Huskie what Kamov did with the Ka-25 and Ka-26. Civilian and naval versions.

You could create a piston driven civilian version for agricultural puposes in the vein of the Ka-26.

You could also make turbine powered, ship-bourne versions, like the Ka-25 family.

Outside of that, I can see a civilian fire killer or air ambulance in the Husky.
